You have my sympathy as I have had upended pillows a couple of times now -
once the cats were at fault (they knocked over the whole table p laying a wild
game of chase around the house) and once it was the fault of my cleaner's
sister-in-law, who came to help her.
But I would like to

One of my ferrets (they both still live because I don't know which one)
climbed up my stack of lace pillows last night to the one I've been working
on.
Hi Nancy
I sympathise. Some
Cats hate the smell of grapefruit. (Not only is it a deterrent, but it is
used in commercial cleaners for animals stains as it has bacteria killing
properties).
Perhaps you can find a way to put the smell outside of the

The Greek Gods piece is stunning. I like the banner you have

Hi Alex
Just had a look at your books in the pipeline.
I hope you will keep us all up-to-date when they will be published,
as I am sure that alongside myself, quite a few ill be interested in them.

Mine cannot stand either.

Yesterday Beloved and I went to the Cleveland Museum of Art. They have been
remodeling for the past few years and little by little are opening new
sections,
and revamping their displys. As we wandered the galleries I looked for
pictures

What does everyone else think?

I would agree as the two main laces of that period were reticle la and punto in
aria (which I think predictive text has just changed the name of again but it's
late and I'm too tired to fight).
So, I'd say Reticella.

If the artist was so concerned with the lace that he paints it so

I hope you get it all untangled successfully.

What's a broiler?
I have a microwave oven, a gas cooker which consists of an oven, a grill (a
wire mesh over a tray on which you put the food with the heat above) and
hobs, and a few electric gadgets such as toasted sandwich maker and toaster,
but have never heard of a broiler. Boiling yes,
AI think your description of 'grill' matches ours (USA) of 'broiler'. The
broiler is the top element in an oven, used on high setting. It cooks fast,
from the top.
We use 'grill' for cooking on a rack over heat (like an outdoor barbecue) and
sometimes on a frying surface that has raised

To me, a griddle is a frying surface. Home griddles are often a rectangular
pan that sits across two burners on a stove. Some stoves have a griddle in the
middle, between the burners. Commercial units are just a large frying surface.
